I'v been looking for any sign of eggs in the Bromeliads but to my surprize I found them attached to the side glass, the one at the bottom is developing and 2 on the top are newly laid eggs.

I finaly see 2 frogs together most of the time one of them calling which is the male.
The bromeliad start attaching it self to the bark background , I will remove the paper clip once the roots can handle the weight.

I used 1 gallon bottle, I drilled 2 holes through the cap, one is for the air hose from the air pump and the other is for the air hose from the bottle to the terrarium, I attached a rigid air line tubing to the hose from the bottle, I used warm needle to poke different tiny holes on the air line tubing.
You can see the tube in the last picture on the top attached to the background.

Yes they are but I will replace them with other type of plants instead, like Bromeliads.
